The Church of God International (CGI) traces its origins to the Church that Jesus founded in the early first century. Membership in the CGI consists of "called out ones" from around the world practicing Christianity as initiated by Jesus and furthered by the early apostles. The church begun by Jesus, the very one He promised would survive through the centuries, is alive and well. Today, disciples live the faith "once delivered to the saints" in this twenty-first century (Jude 3). They obey the same message taught by Jesus Christ, and they proclaim the same gospel taken to the world by the disciples. Members value the witness and teachings of Jesus Christ as the church's work.
The CGI home office is in Tyler, Texas. Incorporated in 1978, CGI has ministers and congregations scattered throughout the United States and Canada . We also have churches in Kenya, Jamaica, the Philippines, Australia, the United Kingdom and a growing number of countries around the world.

A shocking bombing at a fertility clinic has sparked discussion on antinatalism—the belief that having children is morally wrong because life is full of suffering. But what does the Bible say about this philosophy? In this episode, we explore ancient and modern roots of antinatalism and contrast them with God’s purpose for life, suffering, and the incredible hope of eternal glory in Christ.
Join us on this week's episode of Prove All Things featuring guest Barney Rehm, as we examine how Satan’s propaganda and false doctrines—like “today is the only day of salvation” and the immortal soul myth—seek to confuse believers and divide God’s church by painting Him as cruel and unjust. With insights from Revelation 12:9 and Ephesians 6, we explore God’s true compassionate character and His patient, multi‑phase plan of salvation that offers hope not just now but in future ages for all humanity. Tune in to learn how, as firstfruits, we guard against deception, live with purpose, and prepare to share the gospel during the millennial reign and beyond.

Last month in Palm Springs, California, a fertility clinic was bombed. The bomber perished in the bombing, and luckily, no one else did. As information began to filter out about the incident, we learned that the bomber was a 25-year-old who supported antinatalism.
The reason he was bombing a fertility clinic is because fertility clinics help people who have a hard time having a child. These clinics employ different methods to fertilize eggs and implant the egg back into a woman for the possibility of a future birth. The bomber was trying to destroy these future embryos. Fortunately, he was not successful in his plan.
